Temporary becomes permament

“The issue with credit cards cards has been around for 14 months” said another customer at ACC’s Victoria street car park today.
The issue is that the machines do not accept credit cards.
That’s not temporary and that’s not parking right.

The fraud issue was only detected in November last year and that was when credit card facilities were disabled.

Because these machines can’t be easily modified to prevent skimming occuring in the future that are all being replaced. I recall reading in early March the Auckland City Council were awaiting the completion of the tender process to replace these machines.
